Uh, the exact moment I started posting my isp died.Hang on a sec, I'll phonepost the rest.
>>289532405
>>289532433>no.... he was supposed to be the quirky underdog!
>>289532650>killing himself to tell everyone that Naruto is indeed currently aura farming
>>289532761>If Danzo ever wanted to kill Sai for knowing too much he could send him on a mission to Kiri
>>289532433COPEbito.
>>289532617Jesus christ Neji what happened to your face?
I'll post the black and white soon, when my pass resets.
>>289532433So did he really not have any plans for Sasuke and only egged him on for shits and giggles?
>>289532897>smugly looks back at the cameraaura farming to... Itachi's ghost?
>>289532934The original plan was to get Rinnegans out of him, that's pretty much it
>>289532418>>289532433Man I love this scene of Tobi
>>289532679>>289532708Ya know, I actually find it rather odd and interesting that Hinata never says or even thinks in her own head that she wants to be Naruto's gf or that she's trying to become his lover.Does she completely lack the confidence to for rank up the ladder with Naruto and be content with just being useful to him?Also>>289532730>>289532761>>289532787Every time Kishimoto shows these internal dialogues for the Konoha kids he double downs on how one dimentional they are, it's almost like Kishimoto is spitefully telling their fans these characters fucking suck.
Imagine getting this as your weekly chapter.Like there's literally nothing.
>>289532897Meet potential villain!>They call him 007, 0 successful kills on characters people care about, 0 genuine questionable actions, 700 panels of him looking "evil"
>>289532897Sasuke lookin like a 35 year old teenager here
>>289533051>Kishimoto is too much of a hack to flesh out or develop his characters>"H-he's doing it out of spite"holy cope
>>289532679>>289532708How the fuck did Narusaku shippers cope with this?
>13 pages of everyone saying how great Naruto is, then 3 pages just for Sasuke standing around
>>289533188An incredible chapter.
B&W
>>289533055>>289533188>>289533196I liked this chapter a lot. Seeing Naruto gain confidence and act cheeky towards an increasingly worried Obito was cool, and catching up with the side characters and seeing their thoughts in reaction to what was going on was nicePersonally found this chapter wayyy more interesting than the kaiju battles we've been having
>>289533266>catching up with the side charactersThey're just talking about Naruto being great with a little bit of flavor of their most one-note gimmick.
>>289533051If Kishimoto hated them, he wouldn't have created them in the first place, or made such a big deal out of every generation surpassing the previous one.
>>289532825>>289532859>>289532897Manga is just aura farming and re-enters at this point
>>289533470Sasuke had like 3 re-enters without actually doing anything in the last 10 chapters.
Done!
>>289533129If you can't afford to show character growth, you could at least make them not be just like the last time they were relevant so people can fill in the blanks and cope that they were actually growing off-screen.>>289533426He created them for one arc and they stuck around because they were too popular to kill or completely fade away.>or made such a big deal out of every generation surpassing the previous one.Which didn't even apply to most of them.
>>289533479>>289533509>>289532897Arigatou, OP!
>>289532418>>289532433First, who the hell says "perspire" instead of "sweat"Second, how can Tobi even remotely confuse a raindrop with his own sweating?Did he not feel the raindrop hit his arm?
>>289533733He's coping, anon.
>>289532934It's Kishi giving himself an out for whatever the fuck Sasuke was supposed to do with Tobi.
>>289532897
>>289532578Kishimoto felt the need to draw Inoichi's toes as close and detailed as possible
>>289533733damn you're dumb and silly
>>289532897ENTER the man of such amazing feats as... beating a bedridden half-crippled guy, a guy who only uses earth style jutsu, a terminally ill guy holding back, and a senile geezer past his prime. Truly, he is invincible!
>>289533904That's rude, anon
>>289532897Our HERO!
>>289533925Did you forget that he also managed to kill a SINGLE Zetsu in one on one combat? That's literally a Tenten tier feat
>>289532730Isn't Skinny Choji basically useless now?He lost his chakra wings and also the body fat necessary to create more chakra, so...
>>289532433The villain fearing the protagonist is always kino
>>289532897>Set up>Tease>Set up>Tease>Set up>Tease>Oooh Sasuke is back stronger than ever how will he oppose our heroes now??!!!!And then Kishimoto delivers the most laughable dogshit UNdevelopment for Sasuke
>>289532825>>289532859>>289532897This is where Kishimoto's symbolism starts to be as subtle as a chainsaw to the face
Am I perspiring, anon?
>>289532730Holy shit Shikamaru the Strategist is coming! Look out Tobi!
>>289533733Viz Naruto has a very stiff translation (or maybe it really is how Kishi writes which would be funnier). It hasn't happened in a while but remember when everyone was calling people "that fellow"? No one has talked like that in 150 years anywhere.
>>289533266>catching upThey're just wanking Naruto.
What was the reception to these chapters at the time? I feel like they killed the mystique of the bijuu by making them good beasts who are just mistreated by stupid HOOMANS but could actually be friends with their hosts
Reminder that we're entering the manga's version of Luffy running up the stairs for 30 chapters to face Kaido on Chapter 1000 exactly. Lots of excursions and filler await, just to get the mask broken into face reveal on exactly 600.
>>289532433>No it can't be! I have the gedo statue! I have the rinnegan! I'm in charge here!
>>289534107Kishi really didn't know what the fuck to do with Sasuke past his fight with Itachi, did he? He kept him waffling between him just wanting revenge on Konoha, but then getting a brief reminder of the comraderie he used to have, to then just forgetting about it outright and turning full edgelord, and then becoming a possible secret weapon that "Madara" has in the works for the war, and then he has fuck all to do with any of that.
>>289532708>ruining Hinata's page with these two idiotsyou are stupid faggot with a faggot dog, not Naruto's rival wtf
>>289534186I recall a lot of people being similarly displeased at the time. Only Madara, despite all the stupid bullshit surrounding him, was at least seen as entertaining and funny.
>>289532708kiba that's a bit delusional don't you think
>>289532825>>289532859>>289532897>>289532897>4 pages to show footsteps and saucegay smirking at the cameraFucking really?
>>289532405>Naruto showing personalityNice!
>>289534111I'm unironically retarded, what's the symbolism? That he's walking away from the light into darkness?
>>289532761Inoichi's prediction? We could even call this... a premonition of sorts...
>>289532825Actually kino spread
>>289534393Kiba is a true underdog. He should've been the MC.
>>289534449I THINK >Naruto has friends willing to die for him (GOOD)>Sauce does not and walks alone (BAD)
>>289532897>"bad day to wear sandals"
>>289534449>>289534575>lots of footsteps towards the sun>a single set of footsteps towards the opposite directionCRAWLING IN MY SKIN
>>289533266Chapter's alright. That's why I can't call the war bad, outside of the RETARDED concept of entire world vs 2 dudes and their plants, as a mangaka Kishimoto actually bothers to depict things, develop some dialogues and aurafarm
>>289532825kino
>>289533109>that 35 y/o teenager who is totally still relevant to the plot, I swear
>>289534234Do you feel in charge?
>Chapter is just a bunch of shots of feet,toes,soles, footsteps
>>289532859>>289532897>Sasuke sensed Naruto's biju mode and is now running awayKWAB
>>289535007>...I paid you a small kabuto
>>289534286Real Hinatabros don't slander her friends, bitch.
>>289532708More Kiba humiliation ritual.
>>289532433this mf C O P I N G
>>289532617>the guys we were supposed to protect are on the front lines>so I guess forty thousand ninjas died for nothing, but let's not focus on that>we have hope and shitWhat an utter shitshow.
>>289535147that fraud would even know what biju chakra smelled like
>>289532405I hate how chapters begin and end in the middle of stuff happening. I need to recollect my memory of the last few pages every time and annyos me to no end
>>289532433This could have all been avoided if he just captured Naruto when he had the chance btw
>>289532897Wow, it's been so long since all this originally happened, I forgot how much of an utter loser Sasuke is by this point of the story, he's not relevant to anything happening, barely appears at all, hasn't done anything, hasn't won a single good fight, and if he encountered Naruto at his current level he'd get stomped with zero effort, Sasuke at the moment is unironically a forgotten cameo side-character.
>>289532679>>289532708>>289532730>>289532761I wish part 2 took he time to flesh out these characters so this scene would have more weight and better dialogue
>>289536146The only one it bothered to flesh out was Shikamaru, and as you can see, he's still reduced to his one token trait of strategist here.
>>2895360515KS arc did irreparable damage to Sasuke's character. He is no longer nuanced or layered, he's a retard that needs to be killed by Naruto.
>>289534428What personality? We already knew that he's supposed to be a cheeky childish retard since the the first chapter.
>>289533266>catching up with the side charactersThey're literally just glazing Naruto. And none of this is new information either, we already knew everyone in Konoha started respecting Naruto after the Pain arc.
Something weird is happening to my recs bros...
>>289532708>hold your handSakura-sama... please kiss my husband
>>289532897this isn't ENTER, this is TRESPASSING
>>289532897CRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWLING
>>289532897reminds me of raito
>>289536051>and if he encountered Naruto at his current level he'd get stomped with zero effortExcuse me? Are you forgetting he got Itachi's eyes now? and has a perfect Susan?
>>289534107It's really funny because right now he doesn't anything about the war or the edos or anything really. >>289533969Go back to /dbs/.
>>289537085>council bashingkino. just like sakura bashing
>>289533969Stay here in /dnc/.
>>289537529>and has a perfect Susan?Does he?
>>289534252Sasuke since the beginning has just been lead around by the nose by everyone else. every 'decision' he's made has come directly from him being manipulated by someone who wants him to make X choice.
>>289532934He at least planned for Sasuke to get the 8 Tails and maybe beat up Naruto to the point where he could snoop in and capture himAnd the Rinnegan thing too
>>289533107He killed a samurai, attempted multiple assassinations of state leaders and tried to murder his former friends more than once. Like he's literally evil anon. He is a bad person. What drugs are you on?
>>289535147>That boy Naruto mastered Sage Mode AND has full control over Kyuubi? I better keep my ass at Kabuto's or else i'm FINISHED!
>>289537290Uchiha hands typed this post.
>>289537859>He killed nameless grunts and evil political figuresAm I supposed to resent him for this?
>>289535147>>289537945Sasukebros... what happened??We were owning all of Team 7 with a single Chidori Nagashi...
>>289537859>He killed a samuraiSelf defence, he gave them a chance to run.>attempted multiple assassinations of state leadersHe was only after Danzo and Danzo was an evil man so it was justified>tried to murder his former friends more than onceThey just caught him at a bad time. He was confused, scared, and exhausted after fighting at the kage summit and Danzo. It's like when you try to help a wild animal, it's scared and confused and just bites at anything (even those trying to help)>Like he's literally evil anon. He is a bad person.Fuck you. Don't you ever talk about my Sasuke like that again.
>>289538051holy fuck not even trannies are into sasuke that much. what sort of sickness do you have?
anons, Sakura Haruno herself is visiting our humble thread
>>289534163It was probably translated by some boomer or something, I doubt they're supposed to talk like that, but it would be pretty amusing if Kishimoto did give characters an old style of talking to fit the fantasy setting based off old mythical Japan.
>>289537859>and tried to murder his former friends more than once."If" and "would've" but never "did".
>>289538094Uchiha Fever. The only cure is a dose of Uchiha semen deposited directly inside me.
>>289532405>>289532418Really good pageswith nardo btfoing obikek with his part 1 personalityvery cute
>>289538242If a man attempted to burn down a daycare center full of children he would be considered evil even if he failed.
>>289537859Everything bad that Sasuke has ever accomplished so far is no morally different than a shinobi being told by their ninja general to commit atrocities.I'm not saying Sasuke is a Saint, far from it, but Kishimoto is hammering our heads with the notion that Sasuke is even less redeemable than part 1 Gaara when the worst thing he has ever done from the readers' point of view is FAILING to kill his former teammates, something that isn't even uncommon among Naruto's friend group.And we fucking KNOW that he's so he can have Naruto beat him into submission by the end and treat it like it was an emotional hurdle.
>>289538504Absolutely no one in Naruto would be considered good by that definition, they are all killers for hire.
>>289538554*KNOW that he's going that so he canFUCK!
>>289533891KishimoTOE.
>>289538504not if the daycare is full of Uchiha-shits. fuck those faggots.
>>289538504If your "main villain" fails to accomplish any of the evil deeds he set out to do then he's no longer a villain but a comic relief.
>>289538270inside your rectum? or you poosey??
>>289538646COONtachi...
>>289536830You stupid? It's not about what we "know", it's about expressing traits through interactions. Naruto taunting like that and putting the fear of god in Obito is good. Even better considering Naruto only holds symbolic, "names!" power over him and nothing else.
>>289532708Imagine if Kiba died but not before getting a power up and making Madara squirm
>>289538051Karin...
>>289532897Nothing happened this chapter.This is like the third time Sasuke gets teased. Surely he does something next chapter, right?
>>289538270Naruto…
>>289538670ineffectual evil is still evil.
>>289534399Two. The spread is the footsteps of all the allies heading towards Naruto.
>>289538749Nta but you sound like a genuine retard.
>>289538571Give me the list of innocents that Kakashi or Guy were hired to kill.
>>289539223Nta but you should learn a few new English words.
>>289538749Are all the shills defending the current state of this manga this retarded and pretentious? Kek
>>289539124Being ineffectual makes me unable to take a villain seriously.Sasuke may as well wear a colorful wig at this point, there's no real states or emotions to his eventual redemption.
>>289539276Kakashi was part of ANBU (mossad), he definitely killed innocent people.
>>289539276Everyone they killed in the 3rd war.
>>289539485Literally not true .
Hiashi won.
Naruto live action directors film concept.>Honestly, no different than anything else that I’ve done. The cool thing is I feel very connected to that character, and I have always felt that way. When I met Kishimoto-san, the creator, it just amplified that feeling of connection. I think his journey in the story that we are going to tell is something that I find very personal not only culturally, but emotionally. His trajectory, his feelings of being an outsider, the feeling of having an ugliness or a monster or some part of you that you’re ashamed of, and then coming to realize that’s the part that makes you unique, that gives you your power, that is a story that feels very close to me
>>289532433I dont't know if it's because it's so bad it turns good but this obito skit is hilarious.
>>289532897So... this Sasuke can stop current Naruto?
How happy is he right now.
Kishimoto being a capeshit fan really does explain a lot of the shit writing in this manga.
>>289539355Are you the same retard who constantly gets mindbroken whenever someone uses the most common type insult on this website in these threads? You're a pathetic moron.
Same exact patterns and activity, every single time. Funny huh?
>>289541226Thats heaven for earth
>>289532897Good chapters. We're on a roll baby!
>retard still gets surprised that people on 4chan use 4chan lingoYeah.
>>289541226Thats hot as fuck.
>>289541670Personally I just like using the word retard now because I know it makes him mad kek
Usual suspects, huh?
>>289541226Imagine the smell
>>289541734it's really funny too because he keeps going on about "muh patterns" when you can always tell it's the same guy bitching about the same thing over and over again.
>>289532418Naruto actually feels like an MC nowadays
>>289533479Cool panel of him looking evil as fuck.Too bad it leads to absolutely nothing because he proceeds to run into zombie Itachi and immediately mentally regresses into a child.
All the posts praising this chapter feel like one person samefagging over and over again.
>>289532730I like skinny Choji but he didn't do anything iirc>>289532433Cool page but why is Naruto always drawn fat?
>>289532897What would have happened if Saucegay made it to the battlefield before getting flipped by solo king? Would he have devastated them like Madara was doing or would he have got manhandled by the top tiers?
>>289542739That one Doton mountain guy crushes his Susano. Sauce gets raped
>>289538270Karin..
>>289533266>Seeing Naruto gain confidence and act cheeky towards an increasingly worried Obito was coolAfter all the chapters of his faggy whining about sasuke and the fucking kage summit I can't even begin to care about naruto as a character. Honestly I don't get how anyone could like him at this point.
>>289543307Bad Naruto (5KS) badGood Naruto (confident, bratty with what it takes to back it up, having a sense of purpose) goodIt's as simple as this
>>289535917you are dumb
>>289542739Depends on where he goes and when he gets there, but I feel like he definitely wants to avoid the Fourth Division (Gaara, Lava Ball guy ((Dodai)), Onoki too) + that Naruto clone because he would have gotten fucked up.Might have been interesting to see him run into the Third Division
>>289543338This wasn't a good chapter and it didn't properly show Naruto's personality no matter how much braindead cope you type out.
>>289543503It was a good chapter and a good Naruto but you are free to have your own (wrong) opinions my friend, the world is big
>>289539829why is this posted every day
>>289543707Because >>289541778
>>289543889no but seriously explain the meme
>>289544383Can't really understand what an autist thinks
>>289532405rage baited
>>289532433COPE
>>289532897well well well, look who finally decided to show up
So let me get this straight...Sasuke has been bailed out his last three fights from certain death by new superpowers he didn't have any idea he was going to unlock, which means he marched into these fights towards certain deathOne of those his opponent threw and was straight up fucking with him the entire timeAnd instead of reflecting on his life and his goals, he is aura farming in a field as if he's this huge terror that Konoha has to look out forEight Gates Guy still slaps him around, Perfect Susan or no, like a pachinko ball until he concusses and bleeds out
>>289539559Kakashi treated his ptsd with copious killing. Possibly he only killed legit combatants, but he was really into the killing for a while, so, it is hard to be certain.
>>289542739Sauce wasn't going to the battlefield nor did he know there was a war, he was going to Konoha.
>>289544383The keikaku thingy.
>>289545065>>289545065If Eight Gates Guy tries to fuck with him, Kishimoto will make up some BS way for Sasuke to win.Every time Sasuke throws caution to the wind and bites off more than he can chew, he gets rewarded for it with the perfect powerup to counter the situation that leaves him permanently stronger.His actions make a lot more sense if you view him through the lens of having recognized his own plot armor.
>>289545914>Shilling streamers
>>289541921He felt shafted in early Shippuden until Kakuzu. It's even more noticeable in the flashback galore a few chapters ago when it jumps straight to the Pain arc.
>>289532897AURAFARMING
>>289532897You know? If they are all wearing those shoes, it's raining and run on dirt ground, their soles and shoes are gonna be covered in shit.
>>289532897Fails as a rivalFails as a antagonistFails as a characterActually what's a good rival character from other series?
>>289546898Hadler from Dai no Daibouken, specifically from the second half of the series onward. He starts off as a generic evil power-hungry bastard, but halfway through certain events make him into an actually intriguing character and a great complement to the MC.
>>289547028Also, the end of his character arc is nothing short of spectacular although it involves a humongous asspull, but as far as asspulls of that magnitude go, it's actually relatively well executed, and it serves to bring Hadlar's arc full circle in the best possible way, so I forgive it.
>>289532897What could Sasuke even do against Biju Naruto and the allies if he ran into them right nowFraud
>>289532433Kek he is RATTLED
>>289532617>The guys you're supposed to protect are on the front line fighting one of the enemy bossesImagine receiving this broadcast in the middle of a war
>>289532897People who were reading weakly must have loathed this chapterThanks OP>>289533492It's funny because this isn't an exaggeration
>>289548210Sage Naruto is enough
>>289533479>>289533492It would have been Kino if it payed off with him attacking the allience. And killing some K11 in the process.
>>289548803Not to be a stickler, but how does Sage Naruto get past Susano'o?
>>289548858Danzo's wind style could break Sasuke's susanoo. Rasenshuriken would blow it the fuck up. It also deals damage on a cellular level. It destroys the chakra network. So it likely bypasses base Susanoo durability because RS is a massive ball of microscopic blades shaving off the chakra armor.
I don’t come to daily’s but seeing the cover arts are always cool on front page
>>289548915True, though then again, Sasuke didn't gain his full Susano'o armor until after his battle with Danzo, so it's kind of a toss-up whether Rasenshuriken could penetrate that. In the battle with Edo Madara, Naruto waited until Gaara yoinked him out of his Susano'o to attempt hitting him with his Rasenshuriken, after all.
>>289548977We're currently in the arc where Kishi uses 95% of his effort on art and 5% on writing
>>289549019you mean 95% on the cover arts, right?
>>289549342There's also lots of cool looking spreads and biju and stuff.
>>289549377but most of the actual war arc art looks mediocre. it's a huge step down, especially with the simplified character designs.
>>289533146>OMG Trashnata is obsessed with Naruto like in in the first chapter when she appeared in the manga and Naruto ignores her like in all 3 pages when they spoke to eachother, it's over they are canon! Naruto and Sakura will never get together nowwhat is your point bro?
>>289532433That makes no sense, why would he toy with the most precious asset to capture
Boruto unlocked the Jougan yet?
>>289532708>filler characters thinking they’ll beat the final villainLmao
>>289532897CRAWLING IN MY CRAAAAAWL THESE WOUNDS THEY WILL NOT CRAAAAWL
>>289551261No
>>289549529Wrong. Last few chapters had lots of good art. You want bad, low effort Kishimoto art? Everything between Tsunade to Pain. Roughly. It depends on the chapter but overall it's the trend.
why isn't Naruto Hokage like right now?
idgaf about Lee but this new art looks cool
>>289532405smugruto
>>289532825kishi gets it sometimes
>>289552158>worrying about guy instead of jacking off NarutoSurely this is the feat that finally pushes her to Kage tier?
>>289538195>old style of talking to fit the fantasy setting based off old mythical JapanI think that was viz's intention, if no one else's
A literal chair has more screentime than Tenten
>>289552158>using the horrible color version for your crops
>>289552363There is no horrible version of Tenten.
>>289552122>>289552143>>2895521581010!
Why is he necrobumping?
>>289549566Lol yeah that's probably how it went
I've been thinking of an alternate version for how Sasuke should've been treated after the Itachi reveal and before the 5KS>Tobi tells Sauce the truth but Sauce doesn't immediately go after Bee, instead he remains hidden and learns how to use his MS>have another Akatsuki member try and fail to capture Bee (have Kisame do it or maybe keep other members alive, idk)>Raikage still calls for a summit (I guess this time he'll be pissed at Mei and not the Leaf)>word somehow still gets around that Sauce joined the Akatsuki so that Naruto and Sakura still go to the summit>Sauce still goes to the summit to kill DanzoThis way we'd skip >Naruto's 2 humiliation rituals (getting beaten by Karui and then groveling to the raikage)>Sauce becoming a target of the Cloud which never goes anywhere anyway since Bee turns out to still be alive>the inconsistency of Sauce's character since he goes from worrying about his Taka teammates during the Bee fight to not giving a shit about killing them during the 5ksThoughts?
>>289555380Better than Kishi at least.
>>289555380this is worse. you should give up
>>289555946>t.
>>289532679>>289532708This is cute and all but it's nothing that we haven't already heard from her. Did Kishimoto love the confession so much that he made it the basis for all of her character moments going forward?

>>289545065>Eight Gates Guy still slaps him aroundno shitneither Naruto nor Sasuke can hold their own against him until they gain 6P powers
>>289532418>>289532433>The cool rain felt good against his bare skin. "I HATE LEAF" he thought. The tailed beast chakra reverberated his Gedo statue, making it pulsate even as Hashirama cells circulated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of spunky youths after dark. "With kamui, you can go anywhere you want" he said to himself, out loud
>>289544383Something about nepotism.

Chapter 574: Eyes That See In The Dark
>>289557123This is probably one of the most BS plot twists and that's saying a lot.
>>289557041>Kishimoto writing women
>>289557222Good thing Solo King saved Sasuke from going to yet another match where he would be ridiculously outmatched and outnumbered.
>>289557080>>289557092Nice group of "friends", Sasuke.
>>289557123He KNOWS about the war?
>>289557172Amaterasu's body count: Zetsus.
>>289557190>Jonoha
>>289557203>SRA straight to 5KSNothing fucking happened between those 2 in that time.

>Be hyped readers! Sasuke MIGHT accomplish something evil!
>>289557041Oh, this girl. She's still alive. FILLER PAGE
>>289557041I skipped a bunch. Why did he try to kill her?
>>289557190>>289557203>>289557222>>289557235>>289557250>Schizo moment
>>289557222He beheaded the plant thing??? he has truly crossed the line of no return this time...
>>289558071>oh no, a plant clone!>look how evil he is!!!Sasuke's killed a couple people, right? Albeit fodder?
>>289558160I think just those two guys in Land of Waves, and maybe a fodder Cloud Ninja or two.
>>289557041>>289557055>>289557280>>289557296best girl is back... briefly>>289557548thx op
>>289551254Kishimoto forgor.
>>289557871Danzo held her as a human shield against Sasuke who was like 'lol idc' and stabbed both of them
>>289557069Very subtle hidden base design, Orochimaru
>>289558433Sasuke didn't kill them.
>>289558677>"Where could Orochimaru be hiding?">*The conveniently snake shaped cave*:
>>289557123Wow that sure was lucky haha...
>>289557190>Sasuke broke his lover/stalker/suicide pact with Naruto by killing Zetsu before Naruto like he promisedCheating whore
>>289558870Oh shit I just read the rest lol ok he has a point>>289557235
>>289557203am i crazy or was SRA sasuke not wearing the headband yet for that scene
>>289552158Our heroine
>>289557080>>289557092>>289557106This is so forced, why would he lose it like that in the space of one panel for no reason
>>289557041>chapter cold opens with Karins delicious FEETbased kishi, manga is saved
>>289559358>F A P
>>289557190>>289558870He also killed a samurai in 5 kage summit?
>>289557055Kek what is this, where'd they even get that photo
What happened to the civilians? the women? the kids? The ones who stayed behind? Were there tearful goodbyes? Why doesn't this feel like war at all?
>>289559525Just like the daimyo hierachy and general populace, everything is forgotten about and handwaved. It baffles me that kishi explained that these ninjas are train child soldiers FOR a country/daimyo and are paid peanuts, now none of it matters and they suddenly command everything and everyone just because they had a zoom call and said "yea do your thing" as if the countries wouldn't send it actual non-ninja forces to help a threat that is supposedly going to hypnotise a whole fuck world.
>>289559496picture day at orochimaru's hideout

>>289557280licky slurp
>>289559255>This is so forced, why would he lose it like that in the space of one panel for no reasonSuigetsu bashed his SasuKarin OTP
>>289557375>He KNOWS about the war?No, and actually the discovered information is something that Orochimaru would definitely try to find if at all possible. The bullshit here is the ridiculously random nature Suigetsu's discovery.
>>289557297She was just pretending to be retarded, see >>289557055
>>289559864why didn't Suigaytsu just use Substitution here? Is he a footfag?
>>289557069>>289557080>>289557092>>289557106>>289557123This scene right here never got the mockery it deserves.The plot-changing artifact is found by pure accident after a nonsensical fight that started due to a contrived thought process by two of the least relevant characters in the manga.
>>289560243The scroll itself isn't actually important. It just tells them that Orochimaru is worth bringing back and why.
>>289560243>>289560288So what was in that scroll?
>>289560342A list of Orochimaru's top 10 hunks
>>289560644Very funny now TELL ME what ACTUALLY was there?
>>289557055For being taught as ninjas their whole life, these guards sure don't check for concealed tools before imprisoning someone
>>289557146>>289557172>>289557222>>289557250Sasuke's EMS design always looked bad compared to his original MS, it simply has "to much" going on and you can really see here, even the base Sharingan looks better
>>289557250>Yeah, Sharingan does not make Uchiha crazy in the headFans, for some reason.
>>289560711If only Konoha could hire some ninjas with the ability to see through things...
>>289557203Who is he talking to?
>>289557055A byakugan guard would've recognized that immediately.
>>289557069Jugo has ZERO rights to make fun of anyone else's motivations. This retard's sole reason for being Sasuke's lapdog is that he believes he's Kimimaro's "reincarnation", even though Kimimaro would want him dead for killing Orochimaru, and Jugo somehow had no idea that Kimi worshipped Oro, even though they were best friends.
>>289557092>>289557106>low-diffed by SuigetsuRemember back when Jugo was introduced, and how Kishi spent 2-3 chapters hyping him up as this super strong guy that Sasu wanted on his team?
>Oh cool, she's gonna use the glasses to saw through the bars or pick locks or something, maybe cut someone's throat >nvm she uses them to cut paperFor what purpose, Kishimoto?
>>289560243You can really tell that Kishimoto started giving negative shits about the writing of this story.
>Please care about Juugo>Please laugh at Suigetsu >Please hate women, women like Karin (they're all the same)Alright Kishimoto, we get it geez
>>289557222Sasuke... You would fucking job to the current Naruto harder than you did against Bee.
>>289557235Isn't it kind of weird that white Zetsus actually feel fear and the desire to run away? I thought they were mindless zombies.
>>289560644>1. Sasuke-kyunnn~~! <3 <3 <3 (NEED HIM BAD BAD BAAAAD)>2. Itachi-sama x.x (wish he'd choke me and call me scum <3)-power gap->3. Kimimaro :) ninja aids sucks though :(>4. Minato >.> (even though he stole my hokage position)>5. Kakashi :o (so cute when he got scared of me that one time he was trying to suppress Sasuke's curse mark and I snuck up on him hehe)>6. Naruto :P (cutie!)>7. Jiraiya D: (total himbo but with a hidden series / intelligent side)>8. Asuma ;) (rugged, manly, need more be said?)>9. Hiruzen :| (ONLY in his prime - daddy+son(Asuma) = dream threesome LOL JK xD)>10. Kabuto :s (we share so many interests, amazing personality but plain looking)
>>289561325They're all bitchmade because of Kabuto's influence
>>289561394Imagine he was straight. My god, his rape dungeon would be legendary.
>>289561179are you stupid or baitingI genuinely can't tell
>>289561394kek
>>289557041MORE feet shots!!!
>>289557055>>289557041It's actually really dumb that they'd allow her any personal belongings in a world with ninjas.
>>289561240>Please care about yugito/tayuya/konan>Please care about ninja storm>Please care about my samefag generalAlright no-lifer, we get it geez
>>289561488Why does she need a special tool to cut some paper?
>>289561546hey dude there was no way to keep her chained to a wall and detect that her glasses might have a hidden tool inside them, really, you think that an Akatsuki member would do something like that? You think that Orochimaru's pupil would ever hide that inside one of her pictures of Sasuke? stop being so paranoid broooo
>>289557172Why is Sauce calling him Tobi?
>>289557055this shit is so dumb it makes kankuro replacing an entire ass instructor seem more believable
>>289557041>Already has more of a conscious than TARDuto and DUMBkura
>>289560711Everybody else is busy with the war so they put the chuunin exam instructors to the task.
>>289557123What the fuck did he find?
>>289562483the forbidden Jiraiya book manuscript
>>289557222>>289557235Narutobros... Our rival just solo'd a gang of WHITE ZETSUS. Wallah....
>>289561394Sasoribros...
>>289561546This whole chapter was kind of dumb incase you didn't notice, its the kind of chapter where even serious fans of the series start to question the writing. I think Kishi really wanted to do this plotline with Jugo and Sugetsu but he didn't want to waste much time on it, so he speedran it in a really silly way>>289561518
>>289557041I want to eat her feet so bad
>>289557092>no diffed Jugo in SECONDSRaikage tier feat?>>289557123TSUNDEREgetsu the Forgiving is so kind...Also how come they never had Suigetsu interact with his dead brother?
>>289557190>How do you like my Jonoha?
>>289562906peropero
>>289557203>"if I sever my bonds, I'll become even stronger">all of his power derives from handouts from Orochimaru, Itachi, and Tobi>saved by Taka more times than he could count>his favorite move is a shitty version of Kakashi's signature technique that he taught him
>>289561566>yugito/tayuya/konanAll better than Taka, SHARTmoto.
>>289557055The type of character that would die in Death Note because they didn't frisk a girl properly
>>289557092Classic Jobgo
>>289557123It could change the whole outcome of the war you found out about like two minutes ago and don't know what's about?
>>289559496She drew it herself, actually.
>>289561720The Narutoverse Akashic records told him not to refer to Tobi as Madara anymore
>>289559255See >>289557069 in which you can see him starting to lose it, and Suigetsu should be wondering if Jugo is about to go nuts, instead of talking about Sasuke being gone on another rampage or whatever the fuck.It's not very good, since he goes on to have a discussion with Suigetsu after, but it's something.
>>289562483>>289560342I think it's>I figured out i can bring back things and people sealed away by the Death Reaper Seal>want to know more? DIAL 1-800-REZZ-ME
>>289557264Sasuke cannot stop trying to aura farm
>>289557264It may not surprise you to learn that this chapter, which featured no eyes that see in the dark shouldn't be titled that. They see darkness.
>>289557264Loving the Uchiha wank this chapter
>>289557055I don't think it's that stupid they let her wear glasses.
>>289557146>SHYEAAAAAAAA
>>289557222Watch out Naruto! This Sasuke might be able to take down a Sage Mode Clone!
>>289557222Why couldn't we just have this? Why did Koshimoto took antagonist Sasuke away from us?
>>289564347What happens is more interesting.
>>289564758Every thread is like this.
>>289563700Bejita did it better.
>>289561394I'd actually watch some Jiraiya x Oro
>>289564914Everytime a DB page is posted it feels like a huge breath of fresh air. Like... Wow, REAL manga
This daily falls on Sasuke's birthday. Say something nice about his arc. >>289557250These eyeball drawings are really pretty.I can see why people buy Sharingan merchandise...
>>289565040Naruto and Sakura don't really love him, they view him as a pet.
>>289565040>Say something nice about his arc.I just can't. His arc is so dogshit and forced, everything he does feels more like something to advance the plot rather than to make his character progress, and the fact so many people praise him for being "well written" or for being "the rival character that was done right because at least he's not like Vegeta" only makes me hate him more.
>>289565040>something nice about his arcHe had a good run and was a likable character up until he met Itachi in the Tsunade arc.
>>289564431No it isn't. He immediately sees itachi in the same fucking chapter and then becomes a good guy again outside of his Le twist to fight Naruto at the end.. To become a good guy again. Should have just stayed the villain. What is even the pojnt of 60% of the series...
>>289557055It's nice that i have long accepted that nardo is shit so now i can't get mad an instead i can laugh
>>289557055They found out about the war through the BIRDS!?
>>289557055As stupid as this is, this is one of the few times that's reminiscent of the stealthy feel that Part 1 tried to focus on but is almost completely absent in Shippuden.
>>289560342>>289562483I thought he found the Edo Tensei scroll and wanted Sasuke to use it to revive the Hokage, but then Sasuke decided to have Orochimaru do it instead.
>>289565040He's cooler than certain "individuals" who self-insert as him.
>>289563579chibi slut

>>289557041
>>289564848No it is isn't
>>289555380glad you aren't a writer
>>289566443It is.
>>289566615Would you point out the problem there?
>>289566065
>>289557264And just like that, Sasuke's role as one of the villains will come to an end thanks to the divine grace of solo king
>>289565040how character design is consistently good until ch700.
Post this herehttps://litter.catbox.moe/zsud3i.pngIt's just ass.
>>289557032What is this face trying to convey
We never found out where Sasuke's original eyes went. Maybe trashed, maybe stored.
kabuto had an interesting life
>>289557264>>289557537If Sasuke wanted to piss or take a shit, would he have to untie and then retie that giant rope? Every time? Imagine having explosive diarrhea but you accidentally tied a jammed knot and have no easy way to undo it. This is egregious.
>>289568776He shits himself and Amaterasus away the shit. That's why he went blind so fast.
>>289568788But he would have to burn his pants in order to do that....
>>289568788Lol maybe it's just because I'm tired but this post made me laugh
Sex the Uchiha females
>>289532399Took a break from these threads. Started during Pains invasion and left when zetsu neji was happening. What about you guys? Did you take any breaks?
>>289532418I remember the anime sweat scene better than the manga which is why this scene seemed weird
>>289533733I remember it as sweat, maybe different translations through the years?
>>289532897Did I miss Sasuke vs Kabuto?
>>289568776"Sasuke, you've already lost! Wallow in despair, for you have succumbed to my cyclospora jutsu"
>>289571718Nope
>>289571611No.
>>289571966That sounds unhealthy
>>289532730Tenten is going there, Tobi's finished.
>>289571611You missed when Yugito got a line of dialogue!
>>289557069It's missing the neon lights sign "Orochimaru's"
>>289557420Sauce's memory was a bit fuzzy
So is that shared room with the jinchuriki and biju gonna come up again or did Kishi invent that concept literally just for that one scene?
>>289571611No, why would I?
>>289568627I fucking hate what they did to Kankuro’s design in Boruto
>>289573134>I fucking hate what they did to [Insert all characters]’s design in Borutoftfy
>>289532405I feel sorry for those who followed this every week. It's so bad.
>>289564431He should have been stayed on the dark path until the final Valley fight. Not become a temporary good guy for the war arc
The redpill is seeing war Kishimoto is actually trying to make some manga instead of an approximation of one like before.
>>289532405I feel inspired by fans who followed this every week. It's good good.
>>289568801He uses blaze release to stop his clothes and anus from getting burnt. Itachi had to cope with a constantly singed asshole.
>>289573856this
I can't even force myself to read this chapter. Sasuke is just so boring
>>289574792You don't like how his goal changed in the middle of the story? but he got new special boy eye powers
>>289557041foot yum
>still 4 months left of thisMother of god
>still 2 years left of thisThank God for Boruto
>>289574889Kishimoto regreted how 5KS Sasuke turned out.
>>289574889And if the people are still unhappy with Sasuke? BOOM, RINNEGAN.You rike?
>>289574889>>289575771Would the overall structure of Shippuden change if Sasuke never left Konoha and stayed in team 7?>At the end of Part 1 Naruto manages to convince him to come back and not go to snake pedo.I honestly don't think anything major changes. Sasuke's story in Shippuden as an antagonist was inconsequential.
>>289532399Yawn. Can we get back to the real Madara already?
>>289575897Either that or more Kakashi slander
>>289575834nothing changes kek, Sasuke is leaving and then a 2 year timeskip and literally nothing changes. good fucking writing
>>289575834But Anon, if Sasuke didn't leave, Taka wouldn't be formed!Don't you like Taka?
>>289573856Naruto looks better in Boruto.
>>289575834irl naruto would have left with him instead of getting into a fight
>>289532761>>289532787>Sai still showing upKishi forgot about Yamato completely, didn't he? Does anyone in Team 7 even care that he's been captured by Kabuto?
>>289576273and he'll look even better in the Live Action Movie
wtf they are making a new card game???WHY NOTRELEASE THE 4 EPISODES WE WERE PROMISED SINCE 2023
>>289576362Yamato is sleeping in the tree.
>>289576767I'm fairly certain those 4 episodes will either be>Uchiha wank>Minato wank>Inoshikacho wankOr worse>Sakura wankSo I couldn't give less of a shit about them.
Anons, I'm thinking of finally actually watching Naruto. I say "finally" because I'm not even a zoomer and yet I've only watched it until early-mid Chunin Exams arc, many years ago. Don't remember why I stopped. Thing is also that I've been fapping for years to Tsunade and the other girls, so I feel like I should give it a serious go for that as well.So what do you think? Don't care about Boruto. Is main series + Shippuden fuckhuge levels of long like One Piece?
>>289577497there's no fap material if that's what you're asking
>>289577530>no fap materialThat depends what you like...
>>289575834>Tenchi Bridge arc won't happen (which is fine because it already is a filler as fuck arc that doesn't affect anything)>Naruto will not go the 5KS and he won't go through his 2 humiliation rituals anymore, but Tobidara will still declare warThat's about it, I think. It's really funny how the story tries to act like Naruto and Sauce have a really important bond, when in reality they barely affect each other and the 2 times they meet in part 2 before the war (Tenchi Bridge and the Kage Summit) are so insignificant you could remove them completely from the story and nothing would change.
Sex with Shino!
>>289576273>>289576538Oh shit, did i type "Naruto" there? Lmao, i meant *SAKURA* looks better in Boruto.My bad, my head was still sleepy at the time.
>>289577097Sakura wank is better then those though.
>>289578479Part 2 made me hate her too much and pinkshitters are really fucking annoying and I'm fairly certain they botted most polls so I don't want them to have anything
>>289578573Even if they're a bit annoying, I can't help but feel sympathetic for pinkshitters when reading Naruto and seeing their heroine get constantly shit on by Kishi.
>>289557041>hes so handsome>but he tried to murder me>now I love him even more Kishi understands female psychology well
>>289579073>he triedspeedreader
>>289557160>has to use his strongest jutsu against mobs Lmao
>>289563120>no diffed Jugo in SECONDS>Raikage tier feat?Hold up I missed this damn. He might just to High Jonin
>>289557123This reminds me of Sandro's writing
>>289579202He also tanked a TBB from Bee to the face without dying. He might be one of the most powerful characters that never get to fight.
>>289579224>The Connector reveal PTSD kicks in
>>289579236But also would get negged by any lightning user. Or just snake sasuke. Suigetsu is weird but I have to give him some credit
Suigetsu helps Sasuke all the time FOR NOTHING good writing Kishimoto
>>289579262The wording and paneling reminds me of Kazzy >"ITS ALL CONNECTED"Or>"I CAN'T BELIEVE I AGREED TO THIS!!! BUT IT MIGHT BE A WAY TO SAVE RYUKI AND OHMA"
>>289579314Suigets doesn't even care bout collecting sword that are scattered on the battlefield.
>>289557123I wonder what Bullshit this is that Orochimaru didn't use when he was around
>>289579363Does Suigetsu even ever find out his brother was revived
>>289577722The story just improves. Damn
>>289579202Needs a Suigetsu upscale asap
